Superstorm

Always felt that first wave could come north.

I highly doubt that the 2nd wave can come north.


.

of course Im jipped again....

Things seem to be trending our way.  NWS has 2-3 for me.  Thinking we get more than that in southern York County.

agreed.  We've both seen it enough.  Based on geography alone, we really struggle in Lanco for any W or NW to E oriented events really are tough down here SE of the mtns. 

Yes, we will. I just got caught up looking at the overnight/early morning guidance and...meh. Things seem to be settling pretty far south, but more importantly, pretty weak. And maybe the weak part is what's translating to the south part, but I don't know. 

Sheesh, the GEFS is icy as hell for Virginia. Really hoping its wrong. 
Snow mean is pretty sweet too for Wed-Fri. Crossing my fingers for a colder solution.

Approaching 2 inches here in Marysville.
Steady snow continues.
Beautiful Winter morning!
It is even better knowing more snow is on the way this week!

I got in on that one band that dropped a quick inch but then got into subsidence and that stopped the good accumulating snow.

About 1.5” or so.

Nice flake structure but not much more than ambiance snows.

.

The 0z EPS & GEFS were again very impressive for a 15 to 16 day full run.
Lots of tracking again very soon!
 

Snowing pretty good right now. Must have some good lift aloft.


.

Light snow has started in Lancaster.


.

Nice little bump for the LSV. Like where we stand.


.

Wow the Nam is LSV got Nam’d for tomorrow. 

NAM is hinting at a deformation band. Where that sets up will be the big winners....double digit snowfall.


.

The NW Shift doesn't to be stopping. I hope it doesn't go back E at 0z.

Man, that NAM keeps getting better.


.

This isn't bad for the LSV:

This is one that can sneak up on us and we are looking at an 8 to 12 event.


.

It’s the NAM but it looks good for LSV.

Just lit a guy up yesterday, typical know-it-all. He had his audience and was explaining how we don't have the big storms like when we were kids. He is 1 year younger then me. So i rattled of some big ones off my head,  83, 93, 96, 2003, 2010 etc. I said they were all in our adult life. He said well you know what i mean. i said no, i have no idea what you mean. he walked out of the lunch room. 

I was just thinking.

Snowfalls just get bigger and bigger.

We have very few 3” to 6” or 4” to 8”.

When we get a storm it almost always double digits.

Growing up as a snow lover as a kid in the 80s and early 90s, there were only a couple storms I saw exceed 10”....February, 83 (New Jersey), January 87 (New Jersey) and Superstorm, 93 (Harrisburg).

Could be that I’m just old, but these recent storms are definitely delivering the goods.

.

Euro has a gradient flow with a lot of potential for overrunning events.  Models don't always see them until a couple days in advance. Euro attempts one Tuesday and one Friday,. These are the kind of events that pop out of nowhere in good patterns.

Models kept showing taint and that change back to snow with a dying primary is never fast, so I assumed it would be as long as it lasted. I remember Horst saying something about 7:00 am change back to snow, and I was like, “that’s fast”.

To get 13” or 14” and be dry slotted and tainted for 12 hours is a huge win in my books.

13” Lancaster, PA


.

I like how bands of snow are forming in Delaware and pivoting into the area.
